Officers responded to a home in the 4300 block of Northwest 16th Terrace on Tuesday night after the homeowner reported an intruder, Jarvis, was inside his home.

The homeowner told police he arrived home from work and could hear someone in the garage, so he ran in the house and was attacked by Jarvis.

The victim told police he tried fighting off his attacker, but Jarvis grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed him in the leg. Then, the intruder grabbed a model cannon from the living room and hit the homeowner in the head, according to police.

The homeowner said he tried grabbing a fireplace poker to stab Jarvis, but the intruder grabbed it instead and starting beating him, officers say.

The homeowner told police it wasn't until he was able to grab a knife and stab Jarvis in the ribs that the intruder backed off and he was able to call 911.

Both the homeowner and Jarvis were taken to OU Medical to be treated for their injuries, according to officers.

There is no word on their condition at this time.
